    If you have a need to go Bilsteins, then it'd justify the price/quality figure. I'd go Konis personally. They'd do an excellent job with a much affordable price tag.

    I got a quote for Lovells and Koni Reds adjustables fitted for $1300

    Thats definetely what I'm getting when i get the cash

    I highly recommend giving Eastcoast Suspension a call if you're in Sydney

    I checked East cost suspension and aussie's best. No one would even match my quote for Bilstein and eibach's for $1700.

    I didn't want to go with King springs, cause i've heard bad things about them from mates. i don't know anyone personally with Lovell's or kmac's. and from what i've read, there's no doubt that eibach's are good.

    So having decided on those springs, i searched for shocks.

    I asked for 2 quotes from all the places i spoke with. koni's and eibach's, and bilstein's and eibach's.

    Aussie's best gave me a quote for koni's and eibachs' for roughly $1650. Koni's and King's for approx $1450.

    Being stubborn, i didn't want to budge on the eibach's. So the place down at Sydnham, i got the contact number from www.bilstein.com.au, gave me the best quote for what i wanted.

    I went to pick up the car today...

    WOW.. what a difference.. ride's not rough or harsh at all. everything feels much firmer, and sharper. i feel like there'a less effort required for the car to brake, accelerate, and of course, steer / handle..

    It's not as low as some accord's i've seen around, but it's low enough for me. Still practical, cause my driveway's pretty harsh.

    Probably about an inch clearance from the rubber to the arch in the side panels.

    hehe.. now that's complete, i'm not satisfied with my stock 15" alloys.

    Mmmm.. 18's here we come.. :P

    Where will it end aye??? :P

    yeah.. 2 in.. but they though it would probably be less seeing the car's had some mileage on it already. the estimated around 30mm..

    i haven't measured it or anything..
